Does anyone know how to determine the versions of the commons libraries that are included as part of Struts? Specifically, I need to find out the versions of the commons libraries that are part of the Struts 1.1 distribution. I am using the display tag library (www.displaytag.org) and found that it has a dependency on the 2.0 version commons-lang.jar file. Struts 1.1 has an earlier version than that and I'd like to check the versions of the other commons libraries to see if I need to upgrade to newer versions of them as well.
You're best bet is to un-jar each library and look at META-INF/MANIFEST.MF in each. Often there will be an Implementation-Version property defined which will tell you the version of the library. I'm not sure how consistently the commons-* libraries supply this (and I've seen at least one case where the Implementation-Version was incorrect) so you may need to fall back to comparing file sizes against the distribution jars :-( I don't know any more reliable approach than that...
